1 Thissensitivity is based on the modelled performance of the consumer and corporate banking book, and includes the impact of both the product and equity structural hedges. It provides the annual impact on Group NII over the next three years, for illustrative purposes only,
and is based on a number of assumptions regarding variables which are subject to change. Such assumptions might also differ from those underlying the AEaR calculation in the Annual Report | 2 With regards to the relatively modest balance of EUR deposits that are currently
subject to charging, no incremental pass-through of further rates reductions are assumed in the illustrative scenario |

IFRS 9 transitional relief of c.40bps as at Dec-21
                                             Constructive regulatory action in Q220 gave greater relief for Stage 1 and 2 impairments

  • 100% transitional relief for modified impairment post Dec-19 applied until end-2021
  • Transitional relief schedule for static component per original schedule
  • Total post-tax IFRS 9 transitional relief as at Dec-21 is £1.2bn or c.40bps capital, down c.40bps compared to Dec-20
         – IFRS 9 modified transitional relief applies to Stage 1 and 2 impairments
         – Transitional basis of capital remains the relevant measure for our capital adequacy assessment by regulators
         – Total post-tax IFRS 9 transitional relief is expected to reduce by c.15bps to c.25bps from 1 Jan 2022

Pension deficit reduction contributions
                   CET1 ratio headwinds from pension reduction contributions fully incorporated into prudent capital plan and CET1 target
 • As at 31 December 2021, the Group’s IAS 19 pension surplus across all schemes was £3.6bn (December 2020: £1.5bn). The UK Retirement Fund
   (UKRF), which is the Group’s main scheme, had an IAS 19 pension surplus of £3.8bn (December 2020: £1.8bn). The movement for the UKRF was
   driven by £700m of deficit contributions, higher corporate bond yields and favourable asset returns, partially offset by higher expected long term
   price inflation
 • The latest annual update as at 30 September 2021 showed the funding position had improved to a £0.6bn surplus from a £0.9bn deficit as at 30
   September 2020. The improvement was mainly due to £0.7bn of deficit reduction contributions and favourable asset returns, partially offset by
   higher expectations for future price inflation

Important Notice
The terms Barclays or Group refer to Barclays PLC together with its subsidiaries. The information, statements and opinions contained in this presentation do not constitute a public offer under any applicable legislation, an offer to sell or solicitation of any offer to buy any securities or financial instruments, or any advice or
recommendation with respect to such securities or other financial instruments.

Information relating to:
      •      regulatory capital, leverage, liquidity and resolution is based on Barclays’ interpretation of applicable rules and regulations as currently in force and implemented in the UK, including, but not limited to, CRD IV (as amended by CRD V applicable as at the reporting date) and CRR (as amended by CRR II applicable as at the
             reporting date) texts and any applicable delegated acts, implementing acts or technical standards and as such rules and regulations form part of UK law pursuant to the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018, subject to the temporary transitional powers (TTP) available to UK regulators to delay or phase-in on-shoring changes to UK
             regulatory requirements between 31 December 2020 and 31 March 2022. Throughout the TTP period, the Bank of England and the PRA are expected to review the UK legislation framework and any disclosures made by the Group will be subject to any resulting guidance. All such regulatory requirements are subject to
             change. References herein to ‘CRR as amended by CRR II’ mean, unless otherwise specified, CRR as amended by CRR II, as it forms part of UK law pursuant to the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and as amended by the Financial Services Act 2021 and subject to the TTP, as at the applicable reporting date;
      •      MREL is based on Barclays' understanding of the Bank of England's policy statement on "The Bank of England's approach to setting a minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (MREL)" published in December 2021, updating the Bank of England's June 2018 policy statement, and its MREL requirements
             communicated to Barclays by the Bank of England. Binding future MREL requirements remain subject to change including at the conclusion of the transitional period, as determined by the Bank of England, taking into account a number of factors as described in the policy, along with international developments. The Pillar
             2A requirement is also subject to at least annual review;
      •      future regulatory capital, liquidity, funding and/or MREL, including forward-looking illustrations, are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not forecasts of Barclays’ results of operations or capital position or otherwise. Illustrations regarding the capital flight path, end-state capital evolution and expectations and
             MREL build are based on certain assumptions applicable at the date of publication only which cannot be assured and are subject to change.

Important Information
In preparing the ESG information in this FY 2021 Fixed Income Results Presentation we have:

(i) made a number of key judgements, estimations and assumptions, and the processes and issues involved are complex. This is for example the case in relation to financed emissions, portfolio alignment, and classification of environmental and social financing.

(ii) used ESG and climate data, models and methodologies that we consider to be appropriate and suitable for these purposes as at the date on which they were deployed. However, these data, models and methodologies are not of the same standard as those available in the context of other financial information, nor subject to the
same or equivalent disclosure standards, historical reference points, benchmarks or globally accepted accounting principles. There is an inability to rely on historical data as a strong indicator of future trajectories, in the case of climate change and its evolution. Outputs of models, processed data and methodologies will also be
affected by underlying data quality which can be hard to assess.

(iii) reproduced certain data assured by KPMG in the Annual Report. Barclays appointed KPMG to perform limited independent assurance over selected ESG content in the Annual Report which has been marked in the Annual Report with the symbol Δ. The assurance engagement was planned and performed in accordance with the
International Standard on Assurance Engagements (UK) 3000 Assurance Engagements Other Than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information and the International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3410 Assurance of Greenhouse Gas Statements. A limited assurance opinion was issued, which includes details of the
scope, reporting criteria, respective responsibilities, work performed, limitations and conclusion, and is available on our ESG resource hub at: https://home.barclays/ sustainability/esg-resourcehub/. Certain data assured by KPMG in the Annual Report has been reproduced in this FY 2021 Results Presentation. This is marked in this
FY2021Fixed Income Results Presentation with the symbol Δ. No other information in this FY2021 Results Presentation has been subject to external assurance or audit.

(iv) the data, models and methodologies used and the judgements estimates or assumptions made are rapidly evolving and this may directly or indirectly affect the metrics, data points and targets contained in this FY 2021 Fixed Income Results Presentation. We continue to review and develop our approach to data, models and
methodologies in line with market principles and standards as this subject area matures. Further development of accounting and/or reporting standards could impact (potentially materially) the performance metrics, data points and targets contained in this report. In future reports or presentations we may present some or all of the
information for this reporting period using updated or more granular data or improved models, methodologies, market practices or standards. Such re-presented information may result in different outcomes than those included in this FY 2021 Fixed Income Results Presentation. Where information is re-presented from time to time,
we will identify this and (where we think it is appropriate) include an explanation. It is important for readers and users of this presentation to be aware that direct like-for-like comparisons of each piece of information disclosed may not always be possible from one reporting period to another.

Forward-looking Statements
This document contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the US Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the US Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to the Group. Barclays cautions readers that no forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future
performance and that actual results or other financial condition or performance measures could differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements sometimes
use words such as ‘may’, ‘will’, ‘seek’, ‘continue’, ‘aim’, ‘anticipate’, ‘target’, ‘projected’, ‘expect’,
‘estimate’, ‘intend’, ‘plan’, ‘goal’, ‘believe’, ‘achieve’ or other words of similar meaning. Forward-looking statements can be made in writing but also may be made verbally by members of the management of the Group (including, without limitation, during management presentations to financial analysts) in connection with this
document. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, statements or guidance regarding or relating to the Group’s future financial position, income growth, assets, impairment charges, provisions, business strategy, capital, leverage and other regulatory ratios, capital distributions (including dividend pay-out
ratios and expected payment strategies), projected levels of growth in the banking and financial markets, projected costs or savings, any commitments and targets (including, without limitation, environmental, social and governance (ESG) commitments and targets), estimates of capital expenditures, plans and objectives for future
operations, projected employee numbers, IFRS impacts and other statements that are not historical fact. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to future events and circumstances. The forward-looking statements speak only as at the date on which they are made. Forward-
looking statements may be affected by a number of factors, including, without limitation: changes in legislation, the development of standards and interpretations under IFRS, including evolving
practices with regard to the interpretation and application of accounting and regulatory standards, emerging and developing ESG reporting standards, the outcome of current and future legal proceedings and regulatory investigations, future levels of conduct provisions, the policies and actions of governmental and regulatory
authorities, the Group’s ability along with governments and other stakeholders to measure, manage and mitigate the impacts of climate change effectively, environmental, social and geopolitical risks, and the impact of competition. In addition, factors including (but not limited to) the following may have an effect: capital, leverage
and other regulatory rules applicable to past, current and future periods; UK, US, Eurozone
and global macroeconomic and business conditions; the effects of any volatility in credit markets; market related risks such as changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates; effects of changes in valuation of credit market exposures; changes in valuation of issued securities; volatility in capital markets; changes in credit ratings
of any entity within the Group or any securities issued by such entities; direct and indirect impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic; instability as a result of the UK’s exit from the European Union (“EU”), the effects of the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation Agreement and the disruption that may subsequently result in the UK and
globally; the risk of cyber-attacks, information or security breaches or technology failures
on the Group’s reputation, business or operations; and the success of future acquisitions, disposals and other strategic transactions. A number of these influences and factors are beyond the Group’s control. As a result, the Group’s actual financial position, future results, capital distributions, capital, leverage or other regulatory ratios
or other financial and non-financial metrics or performance measures or ability to meet commitments and targets may differ materially from the statements or guidance set forth in the Group’s forward-looking statements. Additional risks and factors which may impact the Group’s future financial condition and performance are
identified in Barclays PLC’s filings with the SEC (including, without limitation, Barclays PLC’s
Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended 31 December 2021), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Subject to Barclays’ obligations under the applicable laws and regulations of any relevant jurisdiction, (including, without limitation, the UK and the US), in relation to disclosure and ongoing information, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or otherwise.

Non-IFRS Performance Measures
Barclays management believes that the non-IFRS performance measures included in this document provide valuable information to the readers of the financial statements as they enable the reader to identify a more consistent basis for comparing the businesses’ performance between financial periods and provide more detail
concerning the elements of performance which the managers of these businesses are most directly able to influence or are relevant for an assessment of the Group. They also reflect an important aspect of the way in which operating targets are defined and performance is monitored by Barclays management. However, any non-IFRS
performance measures in this document are not a substitute for IFRS measures and readers should consider the IFRS measures as well. Non-IFRS performance measures are defined and reconciliations are available on our results announcement for the period ended 31 December 2021.
